Examining the Therapeutic Potential of Stem Cell Derived Microglia

Mathew Blurton-Jones presents CRISPR-based interventions for a rare brain disorder in mice by substituting defective brain cells with healthy ones. He details experiments demonstrating the efficacy of corrected cells in mitigating brain pathologies. Blurton-Jones emphasizes the need for cautious translation to human trials, advocating gradual cell replacement to preempt potential adverse effects. Additionally, he delves into the implications of microglia in Alzheimer's disease progression and explores potential interconnections among various neurodegenerative conditions.

Thank you to all you for working hard in finding the cure on neurodegenerative diseases such as MS, ALS! Besides Alzheimer’s.

Having endured relatives fade away I'm glad that I can share this so others may learn and, hopefully, actually benefit from this research. Even if this doesn't happen hopefully the visible effects can be delayed even at the cost of a short rapid decline. I sincerely Thank all involved in this research and hope for your success.
